In order to ensure that everyone could understand their words more conveniently, Ji Yuehua got up from her chair and walked to the wall as she spoke. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

I saw that he pressed a few times on the interface of the "Divine Metaphor System" projected on the back of his hand. In the next moment, a map showing the mainland of the Republic of Sonivia, the resource island, and the situation of the nearby sea appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

As Ji Yuehua stretched out her finger and slid it upward, a yellow arrow stretched straight from the far edge of the map to the location of Resource Island.

"Sooner or later, there will be a general decisive battle, which is the consensus of the enemy and our two sides. The only difference is that now, what we are looking forward to is a vigorous decisive battle. It is our basic strategy to accurately grasp the movement of alien creatures through a large-scale network of enemy hunting, and to concentrate all our forces to meet the attack once we seize the opportunity. In the best case, unsapient alien creatures would attack an island of resources far away from the human continent and with a large number of fortifications. In this way, we can quietly resolve this storm without affecting the mainland of China...... But what if things don't turn out as they should?"

Speaking of this, Ji Yuehua paused.

He lightly pressed the "Divine Metaphor System" interface on the back of his hand, and then drew a line on the periphery of the resource island, which was shown on the projected map as a wall with turrets. He then made the exact same move on the mainland coastline of the Republic of Sonivia, and drew a large intersection between the forts on the east and west coasts, as well as the location of the Commander-in-Chief, which were shown above the map as the appearance of the fortresses.

"We all hope that the Calamity will fight us to the death. This is the best and most ideal solution for us who are disadvantaged in terms of numbers. To make sure we could bridge the gap in numbers, we've built a number of fortifications over the years in the hope that they will be useful in the event of an invasion of alien creatures. However, it must not be forgotten that we are the weaker side. Imagine if the battle was not in our hands......"

As she spoke, Ji Yuehua drew two red arrows with her fingers. Also from the very edge, one arrow points to the mainland of the Republic of Sonivia, and the other points to the island of Resources.

"What should we do if that happens?"

"The Calamon attacks both the mainland and the resource island......"

"Wouldn't that be exactly the same as the battle a year ago?"

"By and large, yes. Of course, the details may be a little different. ”

Yukino Tachibana, who exclaimed reflexively, nodded in affirmation, and Ji Yuehua continued, "Just like I said just now. The reason why we were passive in that battle a year ago was because we had so little information about the Doomon that we couldn't respond in time. Regardless of the extent to which the final outcome would have been rewritten if we had grasped the overall developments. Maybe it's out of the revenge of wild animals, or maybe it's out of conscious thinking...... All in all, it's an indisputable fact that the Calamon knows how to attack our territory in two ways. Considering that the first time we fought the "Calamity" on the Island of Resources, the opponent only had two S-Rank "Calamity Beasts" and more than a thousand trash fish, the second time we fought each other, the number of enemies rose to seven S-Rank "Calamity Beasts" and almost 1,800 trash fish, not counting the miscellaneous armies that attacked our home continent...... Who can guarantee that the next invasion will not be twice as many enemy numbers as it was in the battle a year ago?"

Although the tone was very flat, Ji Yuehua's question was like a sharp sword, piercing into the hearts of everyone present. Everyone fell silent as if they had eaten a yellow lotus, and fell into thought.

If you get hit, then find a way to fight back.

There's no way to return the color ruthlessly, at the very least, you have to hit the invaders head-on and beat the aggressor to the ground. And in order to do this, it is necessary to recruit members, fight soldiers, and strengthen the defenses without interruption. Generally speaking, if it were not for the shortage of resources, the 13th Division of the Military Headquarters would not have taken the initiative to go to sea to take risks...... This is the consensus of all people, including the successive military marshals and the general staff of the military headquarters, since the establishment of the 13th Division of the Military Headquarters.

Since Azusa Yakumo took office. The battered Fifth and Eighth Divisions have once again returned to their proper numbers, and the fortress on the island has been completely rebuilt. To be on the safe side, fortifications such as walls, turrets, and machine guns were added to the coastline of the island. Then, more importantly, the network of the 13th Division of the General Headquarters was expanded by more than five times. As for the achievements of the Technology Development Bureau in the past few years, it is needless to say.

Judging from the three points of strengthening the defense, the experience of the army, and the recruitment of members, Yakumo Azusa will not do worse than any previous military marshal. From the point of view of conscientiousness, it is even more than Dongfang Canglong, who often throws work to Zuo Youxin to deal with.

Even so.

Yakumo Azusa did not deviate from the policies of the previous military marshals, and basically did his duty within the framework of "tradition...... And this point, in Ji Yuehua's opinion, happens to be not good.

As a bridge in charge of dealing with the outside world, he knows very well what the public in society says about Yakumo.

Just because he is young, Yakumo Zi has already been preconceived by the public that he is inferior to Dongfang Canglong and others. The reason why there are no voices questioning her now is simply because she has achieved good results so far and has not made mistakes...... However, if I really want to say it, it is just a time bomb that has been planted temporarily, and it will explode one day.

So.

As Yakumo's deputy, he has to find a way...... And the opportunity for this change is how to deal with the storm in the future.

If Yakumo Azusa can withstand the crisis that even the strongest Dongfang Canglong in the past cannot cope with, and even lose an arm when dealing with it――――― not to do the "best", but to do "better", all the problems will be solved.

And Ji Yuehua pointed out that the shortcomings of the defensive strategy, in addition to avoiding the possible fiasco, are just to pave the way for the next "dangerous military move".
